Attractive team.

Got to agree that even though we are not going to win the league this season,we are entertaining to watch.If we can get top 4 then I would be more than happy.

....and it does feel strange to be loved !

Honestly think a lot of it is down to Lampard as an individual. As a player it was hard to hate him despite him being one of your better players and it's continued as a manager. Got a lot of respect for the guy and he usually comes across as thoughtful and articulate. It might change though if you start competing with us for honours...

think you'll take third. i know, not a great compliment at the moment.

I was worried we'd drop out the top 6 (which is still possible), I'd say it was a fantastic compliment!!

I personally think the club who stays together as a team and picks up the pieces once it's one game a week in the run in will take 3rd.

spurs have been experts at this but I am doubting their team right now. think spirit is in question just now.

utd look shot.

arsenal can't defend.

leicester are a proper team.

Chelsea have every chance but they have to stop leaking goals

Well $purs weren't 'experts' at it last season!!!!!!

Chelsea and Leicester it is then for top 4,I'd be happy with that !
Onwards and upwards we go !

Yep...there's a real pizazz to our play, in the way we are creating/carving-out openings aplenty and I'm enthused.
Difference is stark from last seasons rigid restrictive patterns and automatisms.


Midfield is visibly more expressive under Frank.
Jorginho for example is trying things he never would under Sarri, player himself touched on that recently.
Restrictions & shackles off, qualities come to the fore

We've become that fun FIFA/Football Manager team to play with this year. Young players ("wonderkids" in FM) all over the team + we've got that fallen power intrigue about us.

It feels weird to me. I've grown so used to people hating us I wanna tell them to f*** off
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How do you think it makes us feel not hating Chelsea? The whole world's gone mad
---------------------------------------------------


We'll know something's seriously wrong with the football world when fans start sympathizing with United's plight.... but I've got a feeling that's gunna take quite a bit of time

That's a huge leap....still think we'd do well to make top 6 over the season

If we get our injured back (Rudi/Rubes/Emerson/Kante) & they stay fit we have a great chance to make Europe
